I don't have any advanceCOMP package, and yet the ebooks I tested worked flawlessly. I repacked an existing epub;I kept only the 20byte file and directories untouched, but changed the text of a book and cover with 7z by just adding or updating those files in the archive.
So far no problems yet....

I don't know if 7z did any better compression than the original ebook. It may have used the same algorythm as used in the original archive...
